Attention residents in Dubai, hoverboards are allowed in any public place in Dubai. These two-wheeled segweys have caused plenty of accidents that the government has mandated that they are prohibited in areas such as malls, roads, residential buildings and public sidewalks.

These portable vehicles are only allowed in certain areas where the use of skateboards and bicycles are also allowed.

You will also not be able to carry these hoverboards in airplanes, whether as check-in luggage or carryon, as they are also known to be a fire hazard. So where can you bring them? You may use them only in designated parks where you can also use skateboards.

In case you didn’t know about this, better be informed. Share this to your friends and family for their knowledge too.
